About the Event

Harm reduction services and policies are effective, humane, and life-saving strategies that address overdose and opioid addiction. This conference brings together a multidisciplinary group of professionals to share best practices on harm reduction, a set of practical strategies and ideas aimed at reducing negative consequences associated with drug use.
